Class, as I said in an earlier post, I’m very pleased with your responses. Thank you for carefully thinking through what you know about astronauts and taking your time to type a thorough response. For homework tonight, please respond to one of your classmates’ posts: you may agree with him/her, ask another question, disagree, and so forth.

“Describe Waterhouse’s plan for impressing England’s leading scientists. Use words from the Words to Know list and other words from the selection.” (Use our vocabulary words, words that we talked about while reading the book, words from our web…)

Directions: Read each question. Type a response for each. Please use complete sentences and proper grammar. Make sure to support your response with details from the story.

1. “This biography is about an artist and his art. It does not tell personal information, such as whether Waterhouse had children or liked to swim. Do you wish this information were in the book or are you happy with what’s there? What needs to be told in a biography?
